Midnight to early-morning bingeing

I noticed a great shift in my body clock this week. Waking up at 7 am is something against my initial plan of waking at 6. And then I go back home from work at 6:30, an hour later than my schedule, exhausted and uninterested at anything. I usually take a nap, then the TV [...]

I went to our dental dispensary this morning to have my 3rd molar restored. It’s as if I incurred the wrath of an underpaid goverment employee. Every micrometer the drill has explored inside my tooth is yelling at me.
This is what you get for getting this service for free! I shall bestow my wrath upon [...]
